This study was done to identify the changes of bite force and occlusal contact between before and after stabilization splint therapy. 16 female patients, accepted for orthodontic treatment at the Department of Orthodontics, College of Dentistry, Chosun University, were selected as the sample of this investigation. For comparisons, the samples of 16 were divided into just before stabilization splint, 1 month after stabilization splint, 2 months after stabilization splint, and 3 months after stabilization splint and used the T-scan system to identify the bite force and occlusal contact changes for each group. Statistical analysis of the data was carried out ANOVA tests, and Turkey tests using $SPSS/PC^+$. The results were as follows : 1. Bite force change from just before treatment to 1 month after stabilization splint therapy was statistical significantly decreased (P<0.05). 2. Bite force changes from 1 to 3 months after stabilization splint therapy showed no statistical significance (p>0.05). 3. The changes of anterior occlusal contacts showed no statistical significance regardless of the wearing periods of stabilization splint (P>0.05). 4. The changes of posterior occlusal contacts from just before treatment to 1 month after stabilization splint therapy was statistical significantly decreased (P<0.05). 5. The changes of posterior occlusal contacts Outing 1 to 3 months after stabilization splint therapy showed no statistical significance (P>0.05). 6. Posterior teeth rather than anterior teeth were more influenced by the changes of the number of occlusal contacts. To sum up above results, we may respect to capturing and stabilizing centric relation Position just 1 month after stabilization splint therapy.

We report 4 patients who developed change of occlusion which seemed to be related to anterior disc dislocation without reduction, but there was no distinct evidence of condylar destruction or collapse. They experienced sudden occurrence of occlusal change, anterior open bite in 2 patients, lateral CR-CO discrepancy in 1 patient, and anteroposterior CR-CO discrepancy in 1 patient. Also, this report is to find out if there is a relation between sudden occurrence of occlusal change and anterior disc dislocation without reduction.

The purpose of this study was to investigate if there were a significant differences in mandibular position between cephalometric measurements from a centric occlusion tracing compared to those of a acquired centric relation by stabilization splint on malocclusion patient with TMD. 60 malocclusion patients, who had TMD and CO-CR discrepancy beyond normal range, were selected and subdivided into Class I, II, III by Angle's classification and also subdivided into clockwise, straight downward, and counterclockwise group by Jarabak's posterior facial height/anterior facial height ratio. Lateral cephaolmetric radiographs with the mandible in centric occlusion were taken and measured, and for each Patient the stabilization splint with mutually protected occlusal scheme was applied for minimum 3months. After each patient's CO-CR discrepancy was in normal range, lateral cephalometric radiographs were retaken and measured. The comparison of the difference between CO-CR cephalometric measurements in all sample, Class I, II, III groups, and Clockwise, Straight downward, Counterclockwise groups were studied. The finding of this study can be summarized as follows: 1 In all sample, the value of cephalometric measurements was significantly different between CO-CR. The mandible rotated to down and posterior position and the vertical change was greater than the horizontal change (overjet-1.3mm increase, overbite-1.9mm decrease). 2. In Class II malocclusion group, most of the mean difference value between CO-CR is higher than that of the other groups and more measurements was statically significant. 3. In clockwise and counterclockwise group, some of the mean difference value is higher than that of straight downward group and more measurements was statically significant. 4. There ware no measurements that explain centric relation measurements from the type of malocclusion, facial pattern and centric occlusion measurements. Henceforth, it is strongly recommended that stabilization splint therapy for orthodontic treatment on TMD patient should be excuted upon overall facial types prior to orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning.

Stabilization splint therapy Precedes orthodontic intervention to enable the operator to find a 'true' centric(which is stable and comfortable), to test the patient's response to a change in the occlusion, prior to embarking upon a complex course of occlusal therapy : and finally, to see if the centric relation position can be stabilized. For this study, 47 malocclusion Patients enrolled for orthodontic treatment at the Department of Orthodontics, College of Dentistry, Chosun University comprised the malocclusion group, little variation of growth factor by the second molar eruption. They had Cr-Co discrepancy beyond normal range. For each patients the stabilization splint with mutually protected type of occlusal scheme was applied for 3 months. Condylar positions in CR and CO were measured using Penadent articulators, Panadent condylar position indicator(CPI), and transcranial projection before & after stabilization splint therapy. On the basis of this study, the results of this study were as follows 1. In all samples using CPI, there were statistical significances in CR-CO discrepancy(p<0.001) both before 8t after stabilization splint therapy. 2. In Rt and Lt+Rt/2 of superior joint space using transcranial projection, there were statistical significances in CR-CO discrepancy({<0.05) before & after stabilization splint therapy. 3. In supero-inferior components using CPI, there were statistical significances in CR-CO discrepancy(p<0.01) before & after stabilization splint therapy. 4. In all components except Rt using transcranial projection, there were no statistical significances in CR-CO discrepancy(p>0.05) before & after stabilization splint therapy. To sum up, CPI might be more effective than transcranial projection to reveal the changes between CR-CO discrepancies and stabilization splint might be more useful appliance for displaying the vertical changes, than the antero-posterior changes, of condylar position.

저작운동을 중추신경계와 말초조직의 작용에의해 일생동안 학습과 적응의 가정을 통해 이루어진다. 저작의 양상은 유치가 구강내에 맹출되면서 이루어지며, 상하악 치아의 접촉, 점막과 혀 및 치아상호간에 일어나는 접촉과 치근막의 고유수용기와 악관절 수용기등에 의해 조정되어 최종적으로 에너지소비가 적고 동통이나 불편함이 없이 최대의 효율을 나타내는 양상으로 된다. 그러나 원활한 저작과 하악은동을 이룩하기 위해서는 저작근, 악관절, 상하악 치아의 교합등이 서로 조화를 이루어야 한다. 만일 외상에 의해 악관절의 기능장애가 오면 저작근활동이 변화하고 이에따라 교합장애를 야기한다. 또한 치아를 상실하거나 대합치아간의 조기접촉이 있으면 교합장애가 원인이 되어 근육활동이 변화와 악관절 기능장애를 초래한다. 그리고 때로는 지나친 근육의 활동(이갈이, 지속적 긴장성 수축)에 의해 지나친 치아의 마모로인한 교합장애나 악관절장애를 일으킬 수 있다. 따라서 하악의 기능을 충분히 이해하기 위해서는 교합의 형태학적 관계와 더불어 저작계의 기능적인 면도 고려하여 그 상호관계를 검토하여야 하며 본문에서는 교합에 관련된 저작근의 작용과 이에 영향을 주는 요인 및 교합장애와 근육활동장애의 연관성에 관해 고찰코자 한다.

Occlusion of the dural-sac in the lumbar spine was quantitatively analysed using a one motion segment finite element mode developed in this study. Occlusion was quantified by calculating the cross sectional area chance of the dural-sac. In static analysis. less than 2 kN of compressive load could Produced no dural-sac occlusion. whereas 6kN load reduced cross sectional area by 4%, and produced 7.4%, 10.5% occlusion for additional 8 Nm. 10 Nm extension moments. respectively. In creep analysis, 10 Nm extension reduced cross sectional area and volume of the dural-sac by 6.9% and 2.4%, respectively. However. flexion moment could not produce any occlusion. The results suggested that occlusions may result mainly from slackening of ligamentum flavum and disc budging.

Objective: This study was performed to evaluate functional changes of occlusion after orthodontic treatment by measuring the occlusal force (OcFr) and occlusal contact area (OcAr), and to compare OcFr and OcAr change according to premolar extractions. Methods: Data were obtained from 74 patients who had finished orthodontic treatment using fixed appliance aged between 18 and 40 years. Subjects were divided into groups who had four premolars extractions or non-extraction (Male extraction-16, Male nonextraction-18, Female extraction-19, Female nonextraction-21). All subjects were asked to bite pressure-sensitive sheets into maximum intercuspation with maximum bite force, and OcFr and OcAr were evaluated by measuring the sheet with a CCD camera. Records were taken right after debonding, 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months and 1 year after debonding. Results: OcFr and OcAr increased gradually in all groups during the 1 year retention period (p < 0.05). Male groups showed higher OcFr and OcAr than female groups throughout the retention periods (p < 0.05). There were no statistically significant differences of OcFr and OcAr between extraction and non-extraction groups in both males and females (p > 0.05). Conclusions: Occlusion was improved functionally throughout the 1 year retention, and premolar extraction did not induce a decline in the functional aspect of occlusion.
